Large Waxed Fröbel Star is handcrafted from fine quality parchment paper which is hand-folded in the customary German style, then hand-dipped in melted Beeswax by our designer, Robert Lee Eberhardt, III. Folded paper stars are traditional fixtures on the Pennsylvania and German Christmas trees. The symbolism of the Fröbel [Froebel] Star represents the Star of Bethlehem and its universal appeal.
